The Racecourse of Achilles (Greek dromos Achilleios) is a narrow strip of land north-west of Crimea and south of the mouth of the Dnieper in Ukraine, running nearly due west and cast. It is now divided into two parts called Kosa Tendra and Kosa Djarilgatch. According to ancient legends Achilles pursued Iphigenia to this peninsula and there practised for his races.
